HI all,

I have PHP5.1.2 & Apache on my PC and I'm trying to connect PHP via a
socket to a java app acting as a server.

I'm failing at the first PHP hurdle.

The following line returns fatal error : Call to undefined function
socket_create() in <filename>.php
$socket = socket_create(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, SOL_TCP);

Configuration: Php.ini lines
default_socket_timeout = 60
extension=php_sockets.dll
extension_dir = "./"
; tried with "./ext" same result... so I coppied php_sockets.dll
to php5 root folder
enable_dl = On ;maybe not relevant

phpinfo()
The only socket related items I can find are
Registered Stream Socket Transports | tcp, udp
default_socket_timeout | 60

Does anybody know what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks for reading this.
